A Brief History of PVC
• Carl Wilhelm Scheele , a Swedish pharmacist discovered CHLORINE in 1774 by dropping hydrochloric acid onto manganese dioxide
• In 1810, Sir Humphrey Davy, identified CHLORINE as an element

A Brief History of PVC
• Justus von Liebig first produced Vinyl Chloride Gas from ethylene dichloride in 1835 at the University of Giessen, Germany
• His student, Victor Regnault, confirmed the work and wrote a technical paper

A Brief History of PVC
• E. Baumann , in 1872, accidentally produced the first Poly (vinyl Chloride) as a white powder when he exposed vinyl chloride to sunlight
• This was the first POLYMERISATION of vinyl chloride
• He reported that PVC melted with decomposition above 130 deg. C

A Brief History of PVC
• Fritz Klatte of ChemischeFabrik Griesheim-Electron (CFGE) developed commercial route to vinyl chloride from acetylene and hydrogen chloride in 1912.
• He found that polymerization of vinyl chloride could be initiated w/ organic peroxides in 1915
• Due to difficulties, CFGE gave up patents in 1926

A Brief History of PVC
• Union Carbide in USA made vinyl chloride using a new process utilizing ethylene dichloride and sodium hydroxide in 1926
• Also in 1926, Dr. Waldo Semon, of BFGoodrich, discovered Plasticized PVC while trying to find a solution for rubber-to-metal bonding.
• In 1928, Union Carbide and DuPont made vinyl chloride copolymer with vinyl acetate
• In 1928, cPVC (chlorinated PVC)• From late 1920’s to 1940’s,
tremendous gains were made by Germans and Americans in the field of stabilizing PVC for commercial manufacture

PVC for Infrastructure: First PVC Pipes
• The first known PVC Pipes were manufactured in 1934 in the Bitterfeld-Wolfen chemical industry area in Germany
• The pipes were used as potable water pipes, transparent food contact pipes (brewery applications), and as industrial conduits for chemical laboratories and plant applications
• In particular, during WWII, PVC pipes were widely used in Germany
• In the USA, the first PVC pipe was made in 1951that had high rigidity

PVC PIPE & FITTINGS: UNDERGROUND SOLUTIONS FOR WATER AND SEWER SYSTEMS IN NORTH AMERICA
• From the mid-1960’s through the 1970’s, PVC pipe manufacture grew in North America.
• Major companies included Robintech, Johns-Manville, and Certainteed
• Robintech was started in the early 1970’s by Brad Corbett, Sr.,later Founder and CEO of Hultec/S&B Technical Products
• Later, vertical integration between Shin-Etsu and Robintech ultimately resulted in SHINTECH

PVC for Infrastructure: Siding, Windows, Fencing, and Decking
• In 1960, BFGoodrich developed weatherable grades of PVC, commercialized by Bird & Son in house siding
• Andersen used this PVC to cover wood to make windows
• In 1968, vinyl bottles became commercial
• Today, PVC serves more than 70% of the construction market for plastics, dominating pipe and fittings, sidings, windows, fencing, and decking
• PVC has captured 60% of the wire and cable plastics market
• PVC also serves 25% of the coatings market

acts as the mould-element during manufacture, to create bell-groove (“race way”) within the bell where it sits
provides structural support and permanent pre-compression of the rubber ring against the pipe (prevents contamination of sealing surface)
“locks-in” the gasket, preventing dislodgement from bell during joint assembly --- no “fish-mouthing”
